Review The Song (17)Print the Lyrics
Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be thinking of you
It's the wrong time
For somebody new
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse

Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you don't shoot it how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright, yeah, with you?

Leave me out with the waste
This is not what I do
It's the wrong kind of place
To be cheating on you
It's the wrong time
she's pulling me through
It's a small crime
And I've got no excuse

Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright?
If you don't shoot it how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright
Is that alright with you?

Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright with you?
Is that alright?
Is that alright?
Is that alright with you?

No...

Review about Nine Crimes

greedings from greece... | Reviewer: virginia | 2/23/2008
    listening to this song...i m considerning how much,us...people ,can mess up with our lives...having next to us something unique...perfect(the other half of our selfs)...but still we find the way to screw it up for something momental ...then we feal regrets and guilts,ending up full of thoughts and feallings bombing our minds ..starting to aprexiate but its alreaby too late ...the trust that glowed the relationship it s gone ....and no matter what you do,we can never make it whole again...even if you want to forget and forgive it s always the doubts and the uncertenty remaining... but thats the nature of humanity...and it s called vanity!!



    Karma | Reviewer: Djunky11 | 1/26/2008

    It is about self-denial and living with your own self-loathing, acknowledging your own flaws and mistakes and knowing that you could get over it but you don't because you feel comfortable in your own self-deprivation. Theres a sense of haunting because they ask each other "Is that alright with you?" as if to taunt the other because they can't help each other when in reality neither wants to be saved. Mocking himself he says to give the gun away when it's loaded so he can't kill himself; truth being he was never committing suicide in the first place, but offers it up anyways in a gesture of good faith.

    A truly never ending cycle of intentional emotional atrophy that neither person wants to be rescued from.



    Great! | Reviewer: Crawler | 11/18/2007

    being forced to betray the beloved person and oneself with it | Reviewer: anyone | 10/20/2007

    i think the song deals with the feeling staying when you betray your own feelings in front of the person you love, and this person with it.
    the song is a duet of two people who need each other and feel related to each other but who can't realize their emotional wish to stay together and love each other because of the circumstances surrounding them.
    it is said in the song that the time and place are wrong to care about a new person and to open the soul in front of, so both persons are ready to hurt each other although they want the opposite of it.they are ready to behave towards each other and against their wish to realize their love. this is the reason why they feel guilty and why their way of acting is described as a 'small crime'.
    they regret to betray their feelings and want each other to prevent that their 'loaded gun' reaches him, they wonder why they are ready to hurt each other if their gun is not taken away by him to shoot it, so both in reality do not want to hurt each other.
    this feeling consisting on the one hand of the wish to stand by each other and on the other hand of the inner doubt to ignore their love, is expressed through the phrases'it's the wrong time for somebody new' and 'it's the wrong kind of place to be cheating on you'.
    this 'somebody new' mentioned could maybe symbolize that there's already another person who's related to them and who's at the base of their behaviour because they feel like having a doubt in front of it, however it is xpressed that the circumstances prevent any loving relationship between them.
    this is also shown in the video in which some children destroy her face and the connection between them.there are also other details in the video that would be interestinfg for the interpretation but i think i've said now all that i'm thinking when i listen to thi´s sad sad beautiful song.
    i love the combination of damien rice's voice and liza hunnigan with her clear bright one and i think they really seem to be related to each other because they're always so involved and touched in every video and concert.
    i think this can't just be the influence of the music but of their feelings expressed in the songs which maybe describe also their relationship.



    effin' great song | Reviewer: The BiDiOtS | 8/17/2007

    that was a great song and the reviews are so funny .. its not just alright its awesome! .. well bye people .. eff on!!=]



    thoughts | Reviewer: Kristin Geiger | 8/6/2007

    i think the song is about the conflict and ability to forgive.
    Each person has regrets that they can't forget and that linger between them. If you can't forgive yourself then the other person never gets a chance. In an attempt to not hurt the other, they
    create a distance thats much worse. They each feel it, but can't fix it. Thats what's tearing them apart.

    The best!!! | Reviewer: William Dazy | 7/4/2007

    Such a haunting melody and one that definitely stays in your head. "Is that alright" is more than just alright, it is one of the best.I congratulate Damien Rice for his musical genius.
